Johnson, Paris

Hi, guys! I'm Paris. I've lived in a lot of different cities and towns in my life (as close as Atlanta and as far as Ohio), but I was born in Charleston, SC, so I consider that my hometown. I'm a Biology major with a minor in Theatre. After graduating from UGA, I plan to attend dental school to become a dentist. I've been a "theatre kid" since I was very young, and theatre has always been my main extracurricular hobby. I've been on stage for as long as I can remember and I love anything that has to do with theatre, so I'm really excited for this class! I've been more of a musical-lover for most of my life, but I'm very excited to read and discuss a lot more plays in this class. Some of my favorite actors/actresses are Renée Elise Goldsberry, Billy Porter, Sutton Foster, and Jessie Mueller. My other interests/hobbies outside of theatre include singing, dance, writing, cooking, and hanging out with my family and friends. I'm looking forward to this semester!
